...and you can quote me on that.

"We’re really bonding and getting along great. Our chemistry is really good on and off the court.” - UNC's Cameron Van Noy. On AND off the court? C'mon. 


"The second set did come with a scare, though. Toward the end of the set, freshman outside hitter Tirah Le’au went down with an apparent injury to her right ankle." - From Georgia's student newspaper, the Red and Black. "Apparent injury" to her ankle? That's your scare? I thought it was going to be more like "Freshman outside Tirah Le'au got a scare when she was discovered running with scissors dangerously close to the North Korean border." THAT's scary.


"Everyone feels a whole lot better after..." Tim Horsmon. After sundown? After a good cigar? After the expiration date? "...after [sweeping NC State]." Oh. I keep expecting more out of these quotes.


"Volleyball trounces Fordham in five sets" - from the Stony Brook Statesman. A five-set "trouncing"? How does that work?


"If one area of Oregon’s game stood out against Utah, it would be assists, the one phase of volleyball that stands out as a measure of scoring." - from the Salt Lake Tribune. Yeah but... eh, never mind.


"Following the loss to the Gauchos, Gimmillaro stayed up till 4am making adjustments." - Long Beach Gazettes. 4 a.m. Kathy realllly got under Brian's skin, didn't she.


"We call it winning creatively." - WMU's Colleen Munson on her team's uneven performance against Central Michigan. I'm sure there are a lot of coaches out there who wished all their matches' scoring was based on artistic impression.
